A Bitcoin (BTC) wallet that has been inactive for over 11 years has sprung back to life, coinciding with a significant price surge. Crypto tracking service Whale Alert reported the activation of the wallet, which holds 37 BTC, worth approximately $2.57 million at current prices.

The wallet’s owner purchased these Bitcoins in 2012 for around $476, resulting in a staggering 541,265.76% profit over the past decade. This remarkable return highlights the potential rewards for long-term Bitcoin holders.

Bitcoin’s price has experienced a meteoric rise since its inception, trading at around $13 in December 2012 and currently hovering near the $69,000 mark. This represents an astonishing 534,407.69% increase. Despite its well-known volatility, Bitcoin has consistently demonstrated its ability to generate substantial returns for investors with a long-term perspective.

The reactivation of this dormant wallet comes as Bitcoin is on the cusp of reclaiming its all-time high of $73,757. The cryptocurrency has surged by 3.04% in the past 24 hours, fueled by a combination of factors including increased institutional interest and growing adoption.
